Current at 4.1 YoE SWE, 150k all cash salary with no bonus and a small amount of dollar lottery tickets. , NYC. Shitty state school. What am I doing wrong? (Besides not working for FB/GOOGL) Trying to clear that by 30
Where do you work? Tech company?
SaaS startup
Not a famous one though
Someone here posted a 400k offer from citadel yesterday.
150K is much higher than median salary in NYC. Lots of people who work in media, ad, art, music industries make only 60K a year with 4 years of experience.
Then why don’t u go and play flute besides them for 60k a year
150K is OK for 4 years of experience. Don't think too much and don't trust all the posts.
I can't even break 200 at gooog
Really? Yoe? TC? Role?
Really? I would think 200 is starting total comp at THE GOOGLE.
Triple your YoE
The money will take care of itself. You need to focus on getting better.
How would you recommend getting better
You are doing well, many with 10yoe are still making that.
Study leetcode and system design, interview at big name places for positions a level up. After enough studying you will pass the interviews. Some people will really have to put in time to get to that level.
